Complication Rates

Dr Dolan’s rate of acute complications is less than 0.1%, whilst the total rate of longer term problems that may require corrective surgery such as band slippage, migrations or access-port problems is approximately 4%.

With a new surgical technique which he pioneered and introduced in 2009, the rate of such long term problems has improved even further to 1.35%. We keep up to date records on all of our results as part of our quality control measures and clinical governance.

Despite having treated a huge number of patients, some with high risk medical histories and extreme levels of obesity, Dr Dolan has never had a patient death from any weight loss procedure.
